My tranny shifts fine thru 3rd. Will not go into overdrive
SOURCE: truck wont shift automatic. stays in 3rd gear. can shift manually
either repair or replace the transmission...sounds like the sensor went out
SOURCE: transmission shifts hard down from highway gear only (D>3rd)
I had the same thing! It was a computer issue. It only cost me about $35.00.
SOURCE: transmission does not always shift into overdrive
Governor pressure sensor or solenoid is going bad. To replace them drop the tranny pan, remove the filter , and the parts are pretty ez to get to. These aren't cheep thou, but replace them as a set. Parts will probly run about $200.
SOURCE: Transmission Not Going into Overdrive
First check and make sure the fluid is full. The most likely cause is a failed solenoid pack. Circuit codes normally mean something electrical not mechanical has failed. The solenoid pack is on the outside of trans pretty easy to replace.

My 95 Cummins Dodge had the same problem and adding "Lucas Transmissiion Fix" cured it completely and permanently.
Thier claim is as follows:
Lucas Transmission Fix is a non-solvent formulas that stops slip, hesitation and rough shifting in worn transmissions and completely eliminates most seal leaks. Use in any transmission for preventative maintenance.Use also in light duty manual transmissions to increase shifting ease and transmission life.
